Ping me when "too-big-too-fail" executives ever are charged for their crimes, instead of just the bank itself penalized (e.g., https://www.cnbc.com/2020/09/23/jpmorgan-to-pay-almost-1-billion-fine-to-resolve-us-investigation-into-trading-practices.html) with money the taxpayers bailed them out with, and they don't like the public to know those penalty payments go to special interest groups instead of back into the treasury. Our corrupt financial and judicial systems don't like competition.

The purpose of cryptocurrency is to not let the government know you are using cryptocurrency.

BitMex does not operate in the U.S. They do not even accept U.S. accounts.

Meanwhile, JP Morgan got busted again for gold and silver price manipulation. They get close to a billion dollar fine and no one goes to jail.
